This serif typeface features bracketed, softly cupped serifs and gently modulated strokes that create an even, readable texture. Curves are round and slightly expansive, with a subtle oldstyle influence in the proportions and shaping. The lowercase shows a short x-height with prominent ascenders and descenders, giving lines a traditional, book-like rhythm. Details such as the ear on the lowercase g, the curved leg of R, and the flowing tail on Q contribute to a crafted, calligraphic feel without becoming ornate.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif color is desired. It can also support headings and pull quotes when a traditional voice is appropriate, and works for branding or packaging that aims for heritage, craft, or literary associations.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting printed pages, editorial refinement, and a comfortable, familiar reading experience. Its softened edges and lively curves lend warmth and approachability, while maintaining a conventional, trustworthy presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text serif with a warm, slightly oldstyle flavor—prioritizing comfortable readability while adding just enough personality in terminals and curves to feel human and crafted.
Numerals have a slightly traditional, text-like character with gentle curvature and varied forms rather than rigid geometric construction, helping them blend naturally with running text. Capitals feel sturdy and formal, with restrained flair in diagonals and terminals that keeps the design grounded.
